I am sitting in an empty football field after my last high school football game finished a few hours ago. I'm the midfield player(中场球员) in my team. But in fact that's not 1 now. I was the midfield player because, as I said, this was my 2 game. That's a good way to end a high school football career(生涯), especially if you win, but even though you don't , it's good to3 at a high point. 

I was eight when I first started playing football. My dad 4 football, and he used to practice with me at home — passing, catching, running. We used to 5 almost every evening until it got too dark. He tried to teach me 6 he knew about the game. " Just remember: Don't ever 7 . "" Stay in the game. Don't lose your concentration(专注). "" Go out there and give 110 percent every time. " Well, that was a long time ago, but I still hear his words 8 in my ears. 

I had a lot in my mind before the game today. I don't like things to 9 , I guess, and this was the last game. I was talking to myself and 10 myself about what to do and not to do. I didn't sleep at all yesterday, and when the sun came up this morning, I reached the point where11 just wanted it all to be over. But then when the game started, my mind became empty. 

I just lived in this game this moment. I didn't 12 the crowd; I didn't feel the cold or the pain;I never felt tired. I just kept my eyes on the ball, and it was just me and the ball and, inside, a soft, white light 13 me the way to the goal. It was a beautiful, empty 14 . 

It's all over now, and it's really getting cold here. It's starting to snow. The sun's almost gone, and I 15 see the goal. Now it's dark and I'm sitting here all alone. Well, I guess it's time to say good- bye and move on.

The Last Leaf is a short story written by US writer O. Henry, one of the most famous short story writers in history. Let's find out part of the story in the following excerpt(节选). 

Sue looked out of the window. All she saw was an old yellow and green ivy(常春藤) plant. The half-dead plant had few leaves on it because of the autumn winds. 

"There are only five now, " said Joanna. "Five what, dear? What are you counting?"

"The ivy leaves, " replied Joanna. "When the last one goes, I'll die. I've known that for two days. Didn't the doctor tell you about it?"

"Joanna, don't say that. Now, have some soup and I'll finish my picture. "

"I don't want any soup, " said Joanna, looking out of the window. "Now there are only four. ""Joanna, dear, try to sleep. I must ask Mr Berman to come up. I want to draw a picture of him as a poor old farmer. "

Mr Berman, who was over 60 years old, lived downstairs. He was a painter too. Sue told him all about what Joann a said. 

"She can't really think that this will happen! The poor woman, " he cried. 

...

Finally, there was only one last leaf on the ivy plant. After a few windy days, the leaf was still there. 

"Sue, " said Joanna, "I've been a bad girl. That last leaf is telling me that it was very wrong of me to want to die. Bring me some soup, dear. "

The next day, the doctor said, "She's out of danger. But poor Mr Berman downstairs are dying. There is no hope for him, I'm afraid. "

That afternoon Sue went into Joanna's bedroom. "Joanna, dear, Mr Berman died today. And do you know why? One terrible cold and wet night, he took a ladder(梯子) and some green and yellow paints and he climbed up. Look at the last ivy on the wall! Why didn't it ever move in the wind? Can't you see? It was Mr Berman's last great picture. "
